Horus Heresy Tactica: Land Raider Squadron

As part of exploring the armies of the 31^st Millennium I would to provide the community with articles of how to best use (at least in my humble opinion) the squads of the Space Marine Legion Army List. Over the next several months I hope to cover all of the units in the Horus Heresy: Betrayal army lists. Check back for regular updates! We continue today with a look at the Land Raider Squadron.

Iron Hand Legion Test Scheme

With the release of Horus Heresy: Massacre just months away I have decided that I need to have a loyalist Legion to balance out my Emperor's Children and Death Guard (more on my ambitious Horus Heresy modeling plans will follow in the future). I have chosen the 10th Legion, the Iron Hands. I like their fluff how and they should compliment my Emperor's Children well. Here is the test scheme. Let me know what you think.

Ancient Rylanor and Emperor's Children Contemptor Dreadnoughts

Ancient Rylanor

I just completed these this weekend and wanted to share them. I am really pleased with how they have turned out. Enjoy!

Crysos Morturg of the Death Guard

Crysos Morturg

I have a quick update for today. Here is my kitbash / conversion for Crysos Morturg. He is a loyalist special character for the Death Guard who in the fluff often leads Destroyer Marines into battle. He is also one of the two (known!) survivors of Istvaan III. Enjoy!

Emperor's Children Assault Squad

Emperor's Children Assault Marine

It took over a month but they are finally done! Behold, my Emperor's Children Assault Squad. I really enjoyed painting this squad up because I love the MK II and MK IV Assault Squad kits and I was finally able to flesh out where I want to take the color scheme for this army. I had started with a pristine color scheme but I was not happy with it. Since my Emperor's Children army is suppose to represent a loyalist force (background to be fleshed out in the future) I decided to try a more battle scared approach to my Emperor's Children. In general I am happy with how it turned out. As usual constructive feedback is always welcome. For my next painting project I am painting three Emperor's Children Contemptor Dreadnoughts. Lets hope I can finish them in less time.

Painting Points Tally: May

I started keeping track of my painting using a points system as a way to both "control" my model purchases and too reinforce me for completing painting projects. May has come and gone and while being a frantic building month I only managed to complete a single model (at least it was a huge one).

Revenant Titan Completed!

Revenant Titan Update

Revenant Post Fall

It has been a while since my last update due to life busyness. I have an update on my ongoing Revenant Titan project and it is not good. Long story short it fell (along with my camera, hence the crummy iPhone photo, but that is another story) and broke its leg. I am repairing it as I type. This model and (long unfinished) Void Dragon Phoenix have always had a special place in my heart. I picked them both up at Warhammer World back in 2005 while studying in the UK. It has languished in a closet, survived many moves around the world, and almost found its way on to eBay on more than one occasion when my interest in 40k has waned! I have tried to give this model the tlc such a beautiful and sentimental piece deserves. Stay tuned for (hopefully) some photos of the finished Titan before the end of May. Just in time for the big Eldar release...
